Mineral Oil Industry Outlook 2025:

The mineral oil industry in 2025 is poised for steady growth driven by diverse applications across pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, personal care, industrial lubricants, and agricultural uses. The global market valuation is projected to grow from around $4.2 billion in 2024 to approximately $4.4-$4.6 billion in 2025, with compound annual growth rates ranging around 4-8% depending on the source. Growth is supported by increasing demand in emerging markets, especially in Asia-Pacific, driven by urbanization, industrial expansion, and rising demand for personal care products such as skincare. Challenges include trade tensions affecting prices and supply chains, but the rising use of mineral oils as lubricants, in cosmetics, and in other industrial processes sustain market momentum with expected continued expansion through the decade.

What is Mineral Oil?

Mineral oil is an oil that is clear, colourless, doorless. It is made from the refining of crude petroleum. It is a mixture of mainly alkanes and cycloalkanes in addition to being chemically stable and nonreactive. Because of its very low level of impurities, mineral oil finds numerous applications in the pharmaceutical, cosmetic, food processing industries and manufacturing industries. The pharmaceutical industry uses it as a laxative and lubricant. Cosmetics use it as a moisturizer and emollient in creams, lotions, and baby oils. As a liquid, it is used in industrial purposes as a cutting fluid, transformer oil, and anti-rust coating. Wooden utensils get protection from food-grade mineral oil. The principal use of mineral oils in each grade depends on the degree of refinement. The higher grades are used for medical and cosmetic purposes; lower grades are marketed toward industrial uses. Mineral oil sees wide use because it is abundant. It has indefinite shelf life. It is low in cost. However, due to the increasing concern about environmental aspects, bio-based substitutes are gradually being developed.

What is Driving the Mineral Oil Manufacturing Market?

The growth of mineral oil manufacturing is attributed to the increasing industrial and commercial usage, continues demand from end user industries, and technological advancement in refining. Automotive, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and food processing industries are the major consumers of mineral oil in the manufacturing process as lubricant, formulation agent, and preservative. The market is anticipated to grow, due to the demand for lightweight lubricants for machinery applications and transformer oil in emerging economies. Companies are focusing on optimizing products, vertical integration, and managing the supply chain globally to cut down the supply cost. The companies are also improving upgrade technologies and sustainable production processes due to rigorous environmental regulations and entering into collaboration and mergers and acquisitions in order to increase their technological skill and market share. E-commerce spreads, and online selling channels improve accessibility for industrial and retail consumers. Sustainability trends toward innovation are driving. Industrial growth combines, demand remains stable, and technology alters the global market for mineral oils, driving profitability and creating expansion opportunities.
